Lookit!

Y'know how I talk about my girl Ashley a lot? Well, she's real, I promise. Nikki took a picture of me and Ash while we were at the mall a couple of weeks ago. See for yourself that my friend of 10 years is not pretend:

We met in Jr. High in Bountiful Utah. Probably in choir class. We're not 100% sure. We were locker partners in 9th grade, and then I moved across the country to Maine. We stayed in touch via email and letters (all of which I still have in a box!!) and I occasionally visited Utah to see my old pals throughout High School.

Thankfully, I moved back to UT for college and after freshman year I actually lived with Ash for a couple of weeks in the summer. It was SO fun. That's a testament that our friendship is for reals: we didn't hate each other after being roomies.

For the most part, Ash went to college out of state, so we spent more time being pen pals than friends in the same time-zone. She's doing grad school in SLC now, so thankfully we can see each other in person every now and then.
